The evil of our time
[AEI] American strategy against ISIS does not need fine-tuning. It needs a fundamental change, starting with an acceptance of the fact that we must own this fight. The war before us is not a war of choice: ISIS is already at war with us. We can wait until ISIS manages a truly horrible attack in the US, as we have before, and then leap spasmodically to avenge ourselves, but that is surely the path of folly as well as amorality -- amorality because Muslim lives matter, too. We can save hundreds of thousands, if not millions. Must we not try?There is no easy answer to the question: "What should we do?" But we must find the hard answer soon and gird ourselves for the pain and effort it will require. If not us, who? If not here, where? If not now, when? An Isaiah 6:8 moment ?
